It has been slow in the .22 Rim Fire section so I thought I would post some refreshment.

Here is an article in the Winchester News circa the mid-late 1950’s showing the pickup of some Model 52 rifles (still in the shipping crates).

I am easily fascinated by these old articles and hope you enjoy it.

Jeff,

Very nice! Too bad we could not enhance the section of the picture showing the shipping crates… it would help debunk all of those “fake” crates out there today!!
